Abstract

Abstract: The solution of integro-differential form of the monoenergetic time independent linear transport equation can be obtained as in FN method using Placzek lemma and the infinite medium Green's function. A new approximation has been used to calculate the half-space albedo, slab albedo and transmission factor in the half-space albedo and slab albedo problems. The numerical results are in good agreement with the literature.
